That's odd. Might {\~n} work instead?

yay! that was a good suggestion (and it worked -- I'm the king of good suggestions that don't, so I appreciate the difference).

I still think it's a bug in bibtex, but now I know why it's not all over the internets.

you were already my hero, but you're still my hero. thanks!

I'm very glad it worked! (I wasn't actually able to replicate the bug, so the fact that {\~n} worked okay for me didn't make me as sure as I would have liked to be that it would work for you....)
